Sitting in the shop last night admiring the fact this tractor will be 60 years old next year. Still cuts grass and collects leafs year after year and looks Damn good doing it. Anyone else have some nice oldies still out on the go?

Mine is a 1976, a bit younger than yours at 49 years young but is still able to keep up with my new kubota bx.

Possibly a 2510 or 2512 noting the tall rear tires.

1974 444 still running fine with original K321. That’s over 50 years old. They don't make them like they use to.

1974 644 lbh and 1976 646 loader. Both have had hard lives before I got them, but both are earning their keep.

@Harry Merri often creeps CCIGT and commented during supper, "Who has the the nice 646LBH?" Sometimes she surprises me with her observations.

What is considered old these days? My 2001 Ingersoll is only 24 years old.
You guys have some nice looking Case tractors.

They sure don’t. That 2510 is running the original Tecumseh as well, incredible they’re still going.

I don’t know what is considered old. But around here if a car or truck is 20 years old, it’s a classic. If it’s 25 years old, it’s an antique.
Just my way of looking at tractors is. If it’s 30 years old it’s basically an antique.
I’m sure everybody has their own thought on this.
Any body else got a thought on this. ????

1967 JI Case 155 now 58 years old. Used to be my aunts lawn mowing tractor. Still has the original 10 HP Kohler in it, with the starter - generator.
This guy does all of the leaf raking, and lawn raking around here.. I have the front blade and mower deck for it, but I have never attached them. Since I use a ZTR to mow and the 646 loader is much better at moving snow or rocks.
The Antique around here is the 1958 (Older than ME! ) JI Case 310 Loader That makes a great snow shovel:

I would love to have one of those track loaders! I bet it’s handy to have around!

Here’s mine. I think the 446 is mid 1970’s and the 648 LBH is a 1980 or 81. They look a little rough, just like their owner, but they can still put in a days work!
The oldest thing I’m running around here is the 1939 Farmall M.
